This group studies Baroque art history of Italy, Spain and the Netherlands.

This study group examines the history of art in three of the most important art-producing centers of the seventeenth century. It follows the first two units of a course available at The Saylor Foundation. By the time we finish this course, we will be familiar with the most important art and artists of Western Baroque art. Familiarity with art history is helpful, but not requried.

The course lasts for four weeks, each week being completed at your own pace. We will respond to the material covered on the course "Activity Wall" and will schedule a weekly chat for more structured discussion time.

publicó mensaje: Hi all! I am a post-doc doing research in biology in Philadelphia (PA, USA). I am originally from Toulouse (France), but also lived in Paris (France) for five years. I have a wide range of interests and would like to keep learning in a variety of topics, including art. I acknowledge that art is a determinant part of human lives and that understanding art involves understanding the context in which it was produced - historical, personal, technical, etc. - hence my interest in this class.
